Nintendogs: Labrador & Friends (DS)

Nintendogs was released in early October 2005. It is an excellent game in the way it's like a high quality tamagotchi. You take care of a dog and can end up buying more. In the process of looking after your dog, you can teach it tricks, take it for walks and enter it in competitions! The game is surprisingly realistic with good quality graphics. At the beginning of the game, you visit the dog kennels and get a dog for free. From then onwards, you have to pay depending on what you want to buy. This game consists of the following breeds: Labrador Retriever Shiba Inu Miniature Schnauzer Miniature Pinscher Pembroke Welsh ...  Read the complete review

Although I own the Dachshund version of this game, they're all the same apart from the breeds of dog available - this Dachshund version was first to be released along with the Labrador and Chihuahua versions, and more recently a Dalmation version has been released. The european release date for the first three to be released was October 7th 2005. This is a simulation game where you can choose and name a dog of your choice. When you first start, you don't have that much money so you can only buy one puppy. The puppies never grow, so they remain adorable! To earn money you train your dog for agility trials, obedience trials and disc competitions where you get ...  Read the complete review

NINTENDOGS!! I got my Nintendogs just days after I got my DS. The very first dog I got was called lucky. Then I found out how to reset it! To reset, press A B X Y R L and START. Then I got multiple dogs, which all were mean to me!! :(. They all tried to bite me (even though this is impossible as they are in the screen!) then I got coco, which was a nice pup and settled in nicely. She now has full walking stamina and is the agility champion. You can also get to go out for a walk, which allows you to go to the shop, park, and train for agility contests. (A must if you want some extra cash:)) You can also get little blue question marks, which can let ...  Read the complete review

Nintendogs is a great game for everyone if you love dogs. The dogs are all very realistic, and you can unlock new breeds of dogs by earning trainer points, and connecting with your friends. I play Nintendogs a lot, and I think it is a really fun to play game. There are a few bad things about Nintendogs, like after a little while you will probably get bored with the game and want to go play another game for a little while. To play Nintendogs, you have to go and buy at least one dog from the kennel, which is where you start at. Then, you can buy food, water and a few toys for your dog. Then you will need to train your dog a few basic commands, like how to sit. You ...  Read the complete review

I had this game since it came out as I have always liked virtual pets, like the ones you get on Tamagotchis. It's an excellent game but the replay value wasn't great as it gets a bit repetitive and boring. However, if you are devoted to your dog and teaching it new tricks and looking after it, this game will be a lot longer-lasting. I must admit, I still check on my dogs every few months, which is more than enough - haha! You start by buying a dog and they all have their own genders and looks. You can name it and teach it it's name as this game uses the Nintendo DS microphone feature a lot. You can start to teach your dogs tricks too by using the stylus on the ...  Read the complete review
